Today’s passage speaks on our mental health and general well-being
Today’s Bible Verse:
3 John 1:2 (KJV), “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.”
What the verse means:
John the author is addressing Gaius. The prosperity referred to here is mental health and general well-being. John wants Gaius to prosper and have good health equal to his spiritual health.
Praying using the verses:
- Heavenly Father, we pray that we may prosper, that is, be healthy fiscally.
- Lord Jesus, we pray that we would be in physically good health and that health would mirror our spiritual health.
- We pray for rest and peace of mind.
